It is time to grow some food!
This is our third year of growing food. Theresa has handed over the reins to Jan and he has already been busy doing prep work.
We are looking for committed Fluxers to take part. You would be committing to around 1 to 3 hours/week. Work that needs to be done: prep soil. We have a yard of manure coming in that will have to be worked into the soil. Planting- this year we are planting: tomatoes, swiss chard, spinach, carrots, beets, onions, herbs, and much more. Weeding - grunt work that is highly satisfying.
In the last couple of years we have all learned a great deal about growing vegetables. This year, I hope to extend that knowledge into canning. I know we have some canning experts at our gym so please let us know if you would like to be involved.
Why take part? Growing your own food is really satisfying and it will make your grandma proud!
Plus, you get to walk the talk! You can't get more local than our front yard.
Please email me if you would like to take part. Oh, and did you know we are the ONLY CrossFit across the country that grows its own food? If you can find another CrossFit doing this in Canada, let me know.
Love it!!! Makes me want to help... almost. :) I do have a feeling this will be an amazing year for the garden though!! The pictures make me think of the fun planting last year... Is always exciting when stuff actually grows, did you see some of the onions have come up already??
